Just use the store in the browser. And if you meant the client, it’s garbage anyways. I’m happy with Heroic Launcher. I take the free games and just never spend a dime with them. Fools
No offense but if you’re seriously using Linux for gaming than then idk what to tell you most games don’t even support Linux and those who do normally stop after a while f.e. Rocket League even years before Epic got involved
Okay but like, you asked why people don’t like Epic Store, then told them to get over it… now you see why people don’t like Epic Store bootlickers either
It’s public data… It has increased 0.4% in a year and was going down from 2014 to 2018. Heck, is only 0.3% higher than in 2014!
Now, how much work and money did it require to get that 1.44% and how many of them are people that wouldn’t have otherwise installed Steam on a Windows partition?
Yes Linux support is not worth the trouble until you see the Epic Games launche is a CEF, that is literally a web app running in a browser and hear me out CEF is designed to be cross-platform.
The only thing they should do is ship the app for linux and maybe add a proton menu in the settings and that’s it!
Valve as done most of the work for them.
What do you think Lemmy servers run on? What do you think the developers who made Lemmy use? I’ll give you a hint, it’s the thing you want people to stop talking about
yeah Linux makes sense in an Tech/IT working environment, but thats it. And people here act like it’s a wonder thing that can do anything, when its in reality lacking a lot.
Are industry standard programms like Microsoft Office or Adobe Suite etc. supported No? then it’s completely useless for 90% of the working environments. Do games support it? Only some? most of them in a inferior version than the windows counterparts, well then its useless for gaming too.
UX is way better on Windows too because it’s less complicated
Store doesn’t even work on Linux

Thats news to me since I am using it just fine on Linux through bottles.
You can usr Heroic Launcher. Works fine on Steam Deck.

Steam Deck runs on Linux, maybe think for a moment before pulling bs arguments from your behind.
PS5 runs on BSD
Where have you been the last couple of years? Thanks to steam and their fork of wine you can play a large chunk of games on Linux.
Oh no! It doesn’t work on a platform that’s used by… let me check… 1.44% of Steam’s userbase!
Get over it, Linux users don’t represent a big enough base to bother, that’s it, that’s all.

I never asked why, try to follow the discussion, someone else was.
Steam Deck begs to differ

No, Linux support is not worth the trouble, nor is OSX support, except to be the only platform to cater to that market.
Totally. Let’s just stick with our corporate overlords. Market share can’t be changed by people making better decisions.
Edit: also, “market share” in the context of FOSS is pretty silly. For all we know, most Linux users spoof the user agent.

Oh my fucking god Lemmy, enough with the Linux. Every thread with the Linux.
You are annoyed that an open source website populated by nerds has a lot of Linux users?

No.
This whole thing runs on FOSS.
Go use xitter or threads then.
What’s the issue with it?
i use pop os btw
